    Oh, wow. The artwork here is amazing. Pretty much a whole week’s strips in the one gulp, and with such stunning visuals!And it shows Marx has this all worked out to his plan. H stopped Duffy from intervening, because he had it all worked out like a chess master.

    If it isn’t the end of him, it won’t be long now.

    Did get a chuckle out of the “farshtinkener” description! Mind you, I had to look it up to see if it was a real word….lol

    Wally’s not pinin’! ’E’s passed on! This cat is no more! He has ceased to be! ’E’s expired and gone to meet ‘is maker! ’E’s a stiff! Bereft of life, ‘e rests in peace! ’Is metabolic processes are now ’istory! ’E’s off the twig! ’E’s kicked the bucket, ’e’s shuffled off ‘is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin’ choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-CAT!!

    Or, at least, for now.

    Still hoping that Wally is only “mostly” dead, and not a sacrifice for “the greater good”. After all, Marx is talking to him. If Wally’s spirit has passed on, then I hope it pops up wherever Kirbee, Chic (and hopefully Irving) ended up.

    I somehow don’t think we’ve seen the last of Wally. But then I’m an optimist.

    Fascinating art in this one. I had a bit of a time at first zig zagging through the text from panel to panel; but the end effect works. Marx is crazy as a loon but he’s been playing the bad dude for a sucker since at least way back on that “borrowed” Lucranian airship.Aaron’s storyboard must be about 100 feet long, and ten feet high.

    I had a feeling….indigestion indeed!

    Second-to-last panel, Marx’s speech syntax is a little weird. It actually sounds right if Wally’s essence is what says, “…and READY!!”

    The next question being, is Ted really destroyed, and what does that mean for Endtown?

    [Theory] The multiverse was being emptied in part due to Free Energy, but I expect Ted used that event to gobble down on most of the sentient essences that would have flooded the fountain, plus all the horrors that happened afterwards. So contained within that body is theoretically trillions of souls….which were just released? [/Theory]

    If that’s the case, will the world(s) start to recover?

    Even a nice MLT sandwich won’t distract from the consideration of Wally and his demise…

    I keep learning more Yiddish from Marx. Farshtinkerer means stinking. Hope I spelled it right.

    I didn’t think “Main Character” cardoodles were allowed to die. But leave it up to Marx to make sure one does just so he can get an eldritchian horror hiding between the realms.

    The problem I have with today’s strip, and I’ve looked it over several times now, and that is this:

    It is unclear who is talking!

    For all we know, it’s the EYE talking back to Marx!

    Meaning that, in the last panel, Marx may be the one meeting his maker!

    Else: If this is Marx defeating the EYE, then that would pretty much herald the end of the entire Endtown saga.

    Also unresolved, as others mentioned above, are the fates of Kirby, Chic, Irving. I’m even of a mind to add Holly to that list; while we think she is „alive“,

    One, can we trust that ship? It has the habit of killing its inhabitants to keep itself alive.

    Two, a total withdrawal from other living beings, to me, that would be a form of death all by itself…

    For what it’s worth.

    Note the center of the last frame: Wally’s essence, free of the fleeting burst…

    I seriously love this series, so deep and so epic! If Netflix or some other streaming service could pick it up as a series animated in Ralph Bakshi style, I’d be a very happy camper.

    So Marx turned the dittos into gunpowder (or some other form of higher-dimension plastic explosives). Though I do admit that if anyone could turn Wally’s soul into dynamite, it’d be Marx.

    Farshtinkener, there’s a word I’m going to have to use, if I can figure out how to pronounce it.
